guardian.co.uk — If there were any doubt that the rules of the international game have changed for good, the events of the past few days should have dispelled it. On Monday, President Bush demanded that Russia's leaders reject their parliament's appeal to recognise the independence of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. Within 24 hours, Bush had his response.

Pweegar, grow up. Top Gun came out a long time ago and the world has changed a lot since then. They're not commies anymore, much like we are not the shining beacon of democracy we once were.

And unfortunately, even when our victory is guaranteed, it still sucks balls. For them and us.

@Naieve:Complete BS! First of all, there is no evidence that Russia has been arming the separatists. Secondly, the only one who "fermented" this rebelion was Georgia, when it took away S. Ossetia's and Abkhazia's autonomous status' back in 1991 and tried to enforce it through brute force. Those regions were lost to Georgia then.

@pweegar. You are apparently the clueless one. I understand words like "commie" and "socialism" mean "evil" in your world, but its a lot more complicated for murk. Try and get some perspective. You are coming across as an ignorant lunatic.
